Hi, this is a problem with the boot code in the fat partition. If the error doesn't occur with the nt5xinstall script on the same machine you can do the following:
Simple take a look into the differences: 1.) install with dosemu befor reboot save the main infos: dd if=/dev/dsk of=/tmp/mbr.1 bs=512 count=1 dd if=/dev/dsk1 of=/tmp/fat.1 bs=512 count=12 2.) install with nt5xinstall dd if=/dev/dsk of=/tmp/mbr.2 bs=512 count=1 dd if=/dev/dsk1 of=/tmp/fat.2 bs=512 count=12 The diff is that dosemu run its own format commands which will format C: again (about line 1628 in install.pl). C: should be allready formated in this state by parted (mkpartfs in install.pl line 654). So it may be that the dos format cmd is the source of this "NTLDR not found" error. greetz mario Am Montag, den 14.04.2008, 09:16 -0400 schrieb Matt Hyclak: > On Mon, Apr 14, 2008 at 03:05:52PM +0200, Juan Jose Pablos enlightened us: > > I am wondering if I am the only one that is getting this problem.

There's still time to save $100.
